520 |a It's 1967 in Los Angeles and Lee Clarke has received his draft notice, calling him up to fight in the Vietnam War. A straitlaced college student from Concrete, Washington, Lee is studying at UCLA until a first fight leads to his expulsion--and his removal from the deferment list. The draft notice forces him to make the first political decision of his life, and though he's happy in California and loves his girlfriend, he will leave the country and head for the border. He signs up at a car delivery service, chancing into a showroom-new Jaguar bound for the East Coast. Bringing only one suitcase and a bag of amphetamines, he makes his stimulated progress across the country, pining for the life he's lost and wondering about an uncertain future. Along the way he says goodbye to his father, mother, brother, and sister--a complex quartet, each a puzzle for Lee to solve. He navigates these tangled connections while examining his increasingly fraught relationship with the United States of America.
